SOCCER - Bouncing ack K by Jeffrey Stahlhut f'Swish,,l the familiar sound of a soccer ball hitting the back of the net, for another goal. This sound was hard to come by for this year's Varsity Soccer team. They soon found out how tough it was to defend a CIF title. The largest problem was inexperience. After losing eight players to graduation and one to Mt. Carmel, they had very few re- turning starters. Wade Brannon stated, this year's team was real youngf, And when you play in a league like the Palomar League it is easy to have a tough season. Both Mt. Carmel and San Dieguito were the stiffest competition, because they brought in the experience needed to win. Not all was bad for the Titans as they made a good showing in the preseason tourna- ments, in addition to some good games during the season, one in par- ticular, the Ramona game where they played eighty flawless minutes and finished f'Champ faced many new adversitiesf' stated Chris Weber, and if Champ can come back like he has in the past, we can expect brilliant teams in the future. Kevin Arthur and Marc Lipkin, two returning starters should provide Poway with the needed dominant players next year, and if they do the Boys Varsity Soccer team should have an excellent shot at regaining the coveted CIF crown. , - f-,. - 1 .fg,.: -gg-511121 iie Q :::1 ,gg , OPPONENT - if .
